december third one thousand nine hundred eighty four the night we can never forget . when the lake edge of an icy gas from this union carbide factory made people sleep forever but. those who are no more today the people they used. those mothers and sisters who were sleeping that night in their homes. the gas leakage from union carbide made them sleep forever. anderson go to hell union carbide go to hell.

for so many years has been drinking poisonous water even today the water still cool is innocent and all of our children are sick. of them and the entire community split up with a problem that is why we will keep on fighting until the agreement all demands the

fine to continue. and i did for a gas leak from a union carbide corp factory in bhopal killed up to twenty five thousand people it was one of the world's worst and best real accidents more than thirty thousand people are believed to have died from the effects of toxic chemicals released into the air from this factory the union carbide plant in the central indian city of. going up on the contaminated water is making our lives how they're going to get each other. out is the kinds of effect we just live betty because three forty six tons of waste of a big warehouse additive over the fence away on the surface of the back to provide . the same. it's the plant that was responsible for causing the world's worst

industrial disaster and now it had been abandoned in a condition where it had become a source of pollution or the most recent study that was done shows that this water pollution and spreading more than three and a half thousand died in the immediate aftermath of the disaster after inhaling the fuse thousands more was a perishes toxin seeps into the ground around the plant poisoning water supplies. and it has been twenty seven years and there is still no proper or security talks to cation or treatment of the soil and the neutralization of the chemical toxic waste is still not being done. yet the government gas relief minister bubble algo or is claiming there are no more sick people and other factories clean and that one hundred percent of the people are drinking one hundred percent pure water these are complete lies groups walking

in affected children see that children today are ten times more likely to be born with birth defects in children in the rest of the country. you. know. if there are kids being born like this there are many kids like this in my own area there are many kids like this. by refusing to be in the water and soil. is crimes crimes on a large number of people. respiratory problems heart problems i problems. the ratio of patients are increasing by the day. in suffering people

dying and the vision is getting affected horrific. so the fact that the suffering has an. injustice continues. this. disaster.

for boxes rhymes with union carbide through pretense right. it's not much progress . for a layer of paper or a layer of oil and it would still be out. there . if you don't think it's going to be saved or stability.

in god made globalization is this american transnational that was involved in the war was. in the midst of what's called the green revolution union carbide decided people looking to save manufacturing who need. to get started in the work seventy's of the formulation plant just mixing different bits to states we'll be back integrated. society. and they knew right in seventy two that the method of the family plan they were living in. would be understood that knowledge in their own words and that he was not known. the. fifty thousand injured have been counted but up to two hundred thousand may be affected in the long term cerebral palsy has

begun to effect the survivors the doctors hardly know how to relieve the suffering they're not sure exactly what was in the lethal cocktail of gases so it's difficult to prescribe effective i'd send word to a funeral pyres is becoming scarce so fifty bodies are being purchased a time in mass cremations. if there are many chemicals found in the water around here which were once used in the union carbide factory. every time it rains the toxic waste which is lying on the surface of the factory goes deep inside the earth and pollutes the soil. surface which is contaminated and the chemicals which are in the earth needs to be removed and he talks a fight and i want good rear otherwise the pollution will continue and people will

keep using polluted water and that is very dangerous from our. thank. you. but. i'm not allowed my name is salam bubble but people call me brother salami and. try have a small business where you know if we are daily wage earners. but

i have no savings here what pay whatever does get saved is spent on medicine. her condition used to be much better. she used to go to the market go for walks and play around with. she used to laugh and have fun there were no problems. with it some time later on we noticed that she couldn't sit up on her own or

turnover of your kind about media but here. slowly she started looking to press. when we would talk to her she would not reply . so we brought her to the doctor the doctor said she's been like this since birth and there might be some treatment for her.

on today we are at a point where we wanted to do a lot but we can't do much. for the people the disaster has been an ending because people continue to be a little more than hundred thousand people skin crawl equally and there's initially crappy thousand people who have been forced to drink contaminated water for the last fifteen sixteen years when you see that the next generation is affected then

we will not know when it stop. again in my eyes this hospital is of no use all the doctors here are useless too it's like putting your child's life in danger a waste of time and money amount of never think of it but. here at the hospital money talks. you give money and should be looked after. we are poor people and we don't have money and that's why no one looks after us even if your child is dying. there we spend five thousand rupees since we have come here i'm not sad about that

i will earn it again as for my daughter there is no improvement and we don't know what to do. whatever is within my power i will do it. the hospitals don't even give our metson for those who need it what if someone doesn't have gas relief papers. how does he apply for medication. if a prescription is me for five rupees how is the poor laborer going to spare five rupees for it and the end of the day all of the big ministers of the states are being pin money in their pockets i want to face them even if they put me behind bars and ready to go to jail for these poor people because these hungry three sick last look at those country towns couldn't fall sick by drinking that water.

right now people are not getting proper treatment they have built leaked all hospitals but they give priority to people who have money for the poor people get no preference. that both our hospital was made for gas victims but treatment is not given in time and people die painfully waiting for treatment. sometimes i feel like there is nothing in our control. there are so many memories and so much pain that come since the gas tragedy that surviving has become a leave in hell. before we had no hope that cibo would even survive we just left everything to god and came to this hospital.

by them. slowly her condition has improved and we realize these injections are very powerful. a doctor told us the same thing about the injections and once this course is over another will begin and those are supposed to be even better slowly so. the doctor said she is almost conscious now. when we came here we were very sad and when we leave i just want us to be very happy here. but the put up

a couple will pull all the political will but isn't it rather shaming for. so many years aka terrible tragedy. poisonous chemicals were still there. you know there's no truth in it there was chemical waste there and it was decided that waste could be disposed of put into the instructions of the supreme court so there was nothing because of the risk of human life immediately or later on and all the idea that a study on the legacy of. the. last part in the government and all that the site is not. outside the factory. the water. mostly in one place before by the drinking water standard all the sound

was like well if it's some despite heavily contaminated all the belief. that he does not. believe that obama is not a one time disaster it is a phony disaster simply because. it is ground water and some demolition of a minute ago by the god of. life there is a contradiction in what the government has seen i mean you have to ask the government and i think it's a very good question about the government the indian government is the meaning of requests for relief. to us we're saying we support this case we want union carbide to clean up this plant and this pollution at the same time the government is making statements that there is no pollution from every time i mean these politicians makes a statement like this this is union carbide submitted to the american court and

says look even their own government says there's no problem this is a class action case has been pending since nine hundred ninety nine. the plaintiffs are people from the affected communities. people who are suffering from health effects. from the eighty's on words in garbage corp u.s. team doctor. costs in every way possible and far that will go by design straight away it meant reduction of safety. all the safety equipment which was provided here such as the refrigeration system for the storage tank where i am i see had to be kept at a low temperature for safety reasons it was all shut down in may one thousand nine hundred four and. they shut down due to for years just to save something like seventy dollars a day which meant that the temperature of the insanity bank was unsafe.

behind b.s. storage tank number six hundred ten this was the m i c storage tank that leaked the process vent line of this type of faulty and could not hold the pressure. for this reason water traveled into the tank while the water entering into the tank may have been the immediate trigger of the disaster the fact that all the safety systems were turned off well certainly contributing to the disaster the fact that he was not being stored as it was originally required to be stored at zero degree celsius that fact contributed so that you really had a series of clauses coming together after the accident i found out that the machinery provided by union carbide for the m i c plant was unproven technology the use the equipment verifying it or making sure it was safe. because i was working with union carbide india ltd and. that's what i regret but i was not in

control of the workers and. their workers and everything was in control of higher management. there were criminal charges for an offense known under indian laws culpable homicide which would be the equivalent of manslaughter and union carbide had been served but had refused to appear to face those criminal charges. with me to day one international chairman ridge you know just returned on a trip familiar so i want to take this opportunity to express my sympathy to all of those who were involved in the terrible tragedy in full for and when i first heard of the national reports on monday the third of december. they were sketchy but first. by the time tuesday morning arrive the magnitude of the tragedy becomes quite apparent so friday morning that early flight and we arrived.

there was a subdued crowd waiting at the airport to lobby union carbide chairman warren anderson but the day's events which had taken extraordinary turn with dramatic developments almost hourly first mr anderson never got to meet the victims of pope out or indeed his own engineers he was whisked away in a police car to the company's guest house in the hills about the town we arrested mr anderson and his team of people i think he came because in part it was his responsibility to be. i think. the least i would do if i was him i would be responsible status and taken refuge behind the not the gates and was definitely not receiving visitors then the local police superintendent straight out to the startling news that mr anderson and two local union carbide executives were under arrest on exactly only the rest gets out i'm going to tell us exactly news arrested

mr cook mr bigley mr minority i understand you've got opinion that humans do have a rest enough that i was merely worldish him and there was a decision. that mr anderson and everybody should be restricted by very word. and everybody knew that it was probably the magistrate and for. well there with me . there were two hours with violations of several indian or was generally related to the language which mr anderson had been arrested on charges of criminal and constructive negligence offenses carrying a possible two year jail sentence and theoretically no chance of bail even the company's lawyer could see the men as they were confined under house arrest wasn't really any sort of a problem. representative of the u.s. government to lend any assistance possible are you surprised to determine the union

carbide has been arrested since he's here to try and solve a problem person look at the magic pradesh state headquarters the senior official confirms the government would be seeking compensation for damages and they launched a pacer attack on union carbide this government going after him in a helpless bitter with a tragedy. and knows its. worst thousands of innocent citizens whose lives have been so deeply. traumatic really affected. by cruel and rampant legions. on the part of the management of the union. and of course he got bit by could be. very clearly warren anderson had jumped bail he promised to appear in court when they were called but he just jumped. the indian government has sent

a request for extradition of warren anderson but the us government has denied his request and his government says they won't send warren anderson to face trial. the proposal for the method actor saying that black people who are now anderson and it was warren anderson who was informed about really being a condition of safety in the plant all this was his personal knowledge. team has been to the spirit creature. blacksmithing has developed from a craft into an industry. goes far north. where returns to good roads and rail against the elements. only transport for medics to reach those in need. and fish are treasures for the people welcome to the. area.

all. you need is a secret laboratory here mukherjee was able to build a new.
